The return of Bai Ling, the High Priestess, caught the attention of all the Lizardn in the Black Mountain tribe.
At this mont, the area outside the chieftain's wooden house was teeming with people.
The chieftain's wooden house stood like an isolated island amidst a sea of people.
"What happened?"
"No idea!"
The icy mist emanating from the chieftain's wooden house sparked murmurs among the Lizardn outside.
Before long, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a white figure erged from the door.
"It's the High Priestess!"
"It really is the High Priestess!"
"The High Priestess has returned!"
The snow-white figure confird Bai Ling, the High Priestess's identity to the Lizardn.
Because only the High Priestess's lineage had bodies as white as snow.
For a mont, the crowd outside was in an uproar!
When they saw what the High Priestess held in her hand, the expressions of the Lizardn outside changed again.
"It's the chieftain, it's the chieftain!"
"It's the chieftain's head!"
"Ah!"
Terrified screams erupted from the crowd.
The Lizardn warriors of the Black Mountain tribe, who were standing guard outside, were also at a loss.
Facing the sea of tribespeople outside, Bai Ling expressionlessly raised Scarface's head high.
"I am Bai Ling, the sole survivor of the High Priestess's lineage. I will save you, I won't let you starve or be slaughtered again. You have the freedom to choose whether to follow or continue to follow the Elder Council!"
"Seize them!"
At this mont, the Lizardn warriors of the Black Mountain tribe outside reacted.
They realized what had happened inside the wooden house.
Hundreds of Black Mountain tribe warriors surrounded them.
"Stop them!"
The elders of the Yue Clan hurriedly erged from the wooden house.
The Lizardn warriors of the Yue Clan quickly ford a defensive line outside.
Both sides faced off outside the chieftain's wooden house.
"We can't let the Elder Council continue to persecute the High Priestess!"
"Don't harm the High Priestess!"
"We can't let them harm the High Priestess!"
The crowd outside was emotionally charged.
They had had enough of the Elder Council's rule.
They believed more in the High Priestess's ability to bring them a better life.
"Stop, back off!"
The surging crowd prompted the Black Mountain tribe's Lizardn warriors to shout loudly.
But the crowd remained unmoved, advancing step by step.
So Lizardn warriors showed a fierce expression.
Holding stone machetes, they were about to charge forward.
"Shan Ben, what are you doing? Co back!"
Shan Ben remained unmoved, raising his stone machete high.
"Anyone who dares to step forward, I'll kill them. The Black Mountain tribe's rulers are the Elder Council, not so High Priestess!"
Facing the fierce Shan Ben, the approaching Lizardn civilians showed fear.
"Ah!"
A frail Lizardman roared.
Though fear was in its eyes, there was more determination.
It suddenly charged forward, crashing into Shan Ben.
Unfortunately, it was too weak.
Even with all its strength, it only managed to push Shan Ben back a few steps.
"You court death!"
The furious Shan Ben punched the back of the Lizardman civilian's head.
The Lizardman civilian imdiately collapsed to the ground.
"You piece of trash only fit to live in a cesspit!"
The enraged Shan Ben kicked and cursed the Lizardman civilian.
The crowd watching this scene fell into a deathly silence.
"Shan Ben, stop!"
Seeing the crowd's atmosphere turning tense, the Lizardn warriors behind Shan Ben tried to stop him.
But Shan Ben, in his rage, remained unmoved.
His kicks beca even more forceful.
"Ah!"
A Lizardman civilian shouted and charged at Shan Ben.
It lunged, crashing into Shan Ben.
Shan Ben staggered back repeatedly.
"You bastard, courting death!"
Shan Ben glared angrily.
He raised his stone machete and swung it at the Lizardman civilian.
"Ah!"
At that mont, the crowd erupted in angry roars.
One Lizardman civilian after another rushed out.
They angrily pounced on Shan Ben.
Just as Shan Ben raised his machete, he was tackled to the ground.
Several Lizardn pinned Shan Ben down.
They pounded his head with their fists.
Shan Ben was soon beaten bloody and mangled.
"What are you doing, back off!"
Seeing this, his companions rushed forward to stop them.
"Kill them!"
At that mont, a voice roared from the crowd.
"Kill!"
Another roar followed.
"Kill!"
In that instant, the cries of battle echoed through the heavens and earth.
The Lizardman civilians on the outskirts angrily charged at the Lizardman warriors.
A dark wave of people instantly overwheld the Lizardman warriors on the outskirts.
"Exterminate the Elder Council, bring back the High Priestess!"
The Lizardman civilians shouted loudly.
Their montum grew stronger and stronger.
The overwhelming shouts let the Lizardman civilians on the outskirts know what was happening.
The civilians, already dissatisfied with the Elder Council, ignited the fire in their hearts.
The angry yet frail Lizardman civilians flocked in groups.
They rushed into the tall and spacious wooden houses.
They vented their anger at the Elder Council on the Lizardn associated with the elders.
"Food, so much food!"
When the Lizardman civilians rushed into those tall wooden houses, they found them filled with various foods.
This made the Lizardman civilians even angrier.
They were starving, while the elders were enjoying endless delicacies.
For a mont, the Ancestral Tribe was in an uproar.
All the upper-class Lizardn beca targets for the civilians' purge.
The once high and mighty upper-class Lizardn were dragged out of the wooden houses by the angry civilians.
In the excited eyes of thousands of Lizardman civilians, they were executed.
The thick scent of blood quickly spread throughout the Ancestral Tribe.
And Bai Ling, standing at the chieftain's door, watched coldly.
"Chieftain, should we stop them?"
Behind Bai Ling, Black Scale felt a bit uneasy.
If the chieftain spoke up, it would surely calm the out-of-control Lizardman civilians.
Bai Ling listened expressionlessly to the roars and screams from all directions.
"No need, better a short pain than a long one. The Elder Council must be completely eradicated!"
Bai Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with murderous intent.
No one understood the nature of the Elder Council better than Bai Ling.
If the Elder Council wasn't removed, the Black Mountain tribe wouldn't willingly submit to the leader.
Even if they submitted, it would only be temporary.
Rather than waiting for the Black Mountain tribe to rebel and be slaughtered by the leader, it was better to eradicate the Elder Council now.
In this way, the Yue Clan could rge with the Black Mountain tribe.
And it could lead the swamp Lizardn to grow and prosper.
With the fishing tools taught by the leader, the swamp Lizardn would no longer go hungry.
As long as food was plentiful, the population would surge.
One day, the swamp Lizardn could also beco a major tribe.
anwhile, in the southern waters.
"What a commotion!"
Standing on the ice, Li ng gazed in the direction of the Black Mountain tribe.
Though it was a bit far, Li ng could hear the clamor of the Black Mountain tribe.
"It seems Bai Ling succeeded!"
Li ng grinned, sitting leisurely on the ice.
Now, it was just a matter of patiently waiting.
